Science this year will be a very, content driven, hands on experience. Focused on learning and doing science! Students will experience working with a group in a laboratory environment, concept discussion and explanation, designing and executing their own experiments, and much more. This is sure to be a memorable year, and I look forward to sharing the wonderful world of science with each and every student.
